In the Sick Room.

Pure air and proper food are the
fundamental points in the are of the
sick; the two pillars Of good nursing
on which the whole structure rests.
If these are withheld, all else that can
be done is like pouring water in II sieve,
a little clings while the greater part
is lost. When these are given, many
minor details that are usually insisted
upon as of great Importance may be
overlooked, or omitted, without serious
detriment to the sufferer. To the SUI
perticial observer they may seem easy
things to furnish, but any physician
with a large practice will testify that
he has more or less difficulty in OBJ
tanning them for his patients under the
most favorable circumstances. In
many eases. even Nith incessant watch
fulness on his part, he cannot be sure
that in his absence they are pro-
vidcd in proper quantities and contin-
uously. In orderto have pure air the
most scrupulous cleanliness must pre-
vail in the sickroom, all the surround
ings of the invalid must be spotlcssly
neat and fresh. To keep them SO re-
quircs no small amount of ARE and
ingenuity on the part of the nurse, and
all her knowledge will be needed to do
it without disturbing and irritating
her charge. 1t is evident, then, that
pure air involves much more than the
mere labor of opening and shutting Il
window. TO provide proper food for
a sick person it is Indispensable that
the nurse should know something of
the effect of different forms of food on
the human system, what kinds are
best adapted to repair the waste of
disease and how they a be given
TO obtain the best result. Mix, for in
stance, which is the staple article of
diet for most persons suffering from
serious illness, may be So given as to
be positively injurious instead of bcne-
fetal. Although it is Il liquid, when
swallowed, the action of the gastric
juice in the stomach turns it into a solid
curd, like soft blanc mango. This
must be again converted INTO a fluid
before it can be absorbed TO ado nour-
ishment of the body. If too much is
given atonce, n mass Of curd is formed
which is more than the stomach can
take are of in its weakened condition.
1t digcsts very slowly,or not at all and
causes discomfort and oppression if it
is not rejected altogether, eXhausting
instead of bcneliting the patient

HOW BEN BUTLER cor RICH.
Young Men of To-day May do Likewise
IL They Follow Advice Civsp.

founS wen OF lo'Cay way 90 L!keWlSe
iIThey Follow Advice Given.
General Il. +. Butler being asked for
some suggestions on gaining success
stated that when he was a young law
yer, practicing in Lowell, Mass, a bank
president advised him to take his little
deposit and buy real estate, from which
he could be deriving some revenue.
The general said that he had but little
money and was uncertain as to his
future.
Never mind" said til bank presi.
dent, 'go to the next public auction of
real estate, bid off a lot with a building
Of some kind on it, pay what money
you have and give your promissory
notes for the balance. You will come
out all right"
General Butler says this advice was
good. When a man has obliged him
self, by his notes. to pay money ut a
certain time, it inclines him to econo-
my. He followed the advice, and IN
time became the owner Of several par
cells of valuable real estate in Lowell
Two classes will not be likely to
heed this advice--the improvident and
the over-cautious. The latter will be
apt to say: ut would be all right but
for those dreadful promissory notes.
They are always running on and if a
man falls sick they do not wait for kim
to ct we'll"
There is this danger, of course, but
one Il make no business venture
without some risk, and with the knowl-
edge acquired by recent Investigations
OF the cause of most ordinary ailments,
and the means of cure, one runs little
risk from that source 1t is now known
that most of the common ailments have
their origin in deranged kidneys. They
are the chief blood purifiers of the sys-
tenn, and when disordered a breaking
down somewhere is soon inevitable,
because the poison. which in their
healthy condition is eliminated, is car
ried through the entire system.
Put them in order, and health re-
turns.
I. ID. Dewey, a successful man. pres
ident of the Johnston Harvester Com
pany, Batavia, n. Y, gives his expert
ence as follows:
In 1882 my health was falling, my
head panied me constantly, my appr-
tite vas uncertain, | could not sleep

ulants | gradually gained strength, 50

can highly recommend it.
Young men have but to use ordinary
prudence, and when any arrangement
occurs if they use the same means as
did this successful business man, they
may feel a constant assurance of their
ability to carry 10 successful conclusion
all ordinary business projects, includ.
ing the care of their promissory notes
when due.

A SIDE TRACK CONTEST.

Hearing Before the Railway
Commissioners ON the Waseca
Case.
The side track contest which is being
waged between MeSSrS. Walcott s. Co.,
of Waseca, and the Minneapolis & 81.
Louis Railroad company, came up be-
fore the railway commissioners yester-
day. a side track had been taken up
by the road, and the Elevator company
complained to the commission. The
complaint was read, and both parties
were heard. Conflicting statements
were presented in the case. The rail-
road company claimed that this was a
private side track leading to private
warehouse, and that, therefore, the
commission had no Jurisdiction. The
commission decided that the complain
ants should make an amended complaint
in the form of affidavitS, to which the
railroad will be allowed to reply, when
time can be appointed to hear the
case at Waseca.
Robert Ryan, general manager of the
Harden Hand Star Grenade company,
called on the commission yesterday with
his goods, and stated that some of the
railroads desired to adopt them if they
would comply with the law. He decided
to make public test Sept. Ii at p. m,
in st. Paul, to show the merits of the
eXtinguisherS. TIE commissioners have
signified their intention of being pres
ent, and of inviting FL. w. Foote, of
Minneapolis, who represents the Bah
cock and Chapman fire eXtinguisher
companies, to make an exhibit at the
same time.

HIS WARM SOUTHERN LOVE.

A Young Spaniard Who Would
Shoot Because a Maiden Said
Nay.
What would have been a spicy sensa-
ton was nipped in the bud by Chief of
Police Clark yesterday. a swarthy
Spaniard loved pretty little blonde
German girl with all the fervor of the
warm blood that flowed in his veins, and
the pretty little German blonde requited
not his love, but c0ldly told him that her
heart belonged to another. The swarthy
Mexican has long been faithful groom
in the stables of q. w. Nash, the horse
fancier, at the corner of Third street
and Pleasant avenue, and had adopted
the surname of his employer, calling
himself James Albert Nash. The blonde
German girl, whose name is Lettie
Brock, Is a servant in the Nash house
hold. Three months ago the MeXicans
passion, and she did not resent his adj
VanceS until Wednesday afternoon,
when he came all at once to the
point by asking her to go and
get married right away. Lettie hung
her modest head as they do i'll all love
scenes, and murmured: Il cannot, jim,
for | love another" But Jim was not
the careless sutton to give up the prize
his heart WAS set upon, and in his breast
there bloomed spirit Of jealous rage.
''YOu can never marry him" he roared,
81 will kill him first, and Pll kill you
and myself, too, or you shall be mine''
With this threat Jim whipped out
A BIG REVOLVER
and pointed it at his own breast. Lettie
fled, but Jim did not suicide at that
point. The frightened girl told Mr..
Nash of the threat that jim had made,
and Mr.. Nash told Chief Clark. Yes
terday morning Jim was driving his
employer down town, and as they
passed in front of police headquarters
Chief Clark called him in Jim was re-
ieved of the weapon, and in answer to
question said he had borrowed it to
shoot himself in case Lettie would not
be his wife. He had in his pocket
marriage license to wed her, which was
dated Aug. 90.
Didn't you threaten to do up Lettie and
your rival lover?i he was asked by Mr.. Nash.
IF 1 find him, I'll fight him to finish
yet" was Jim's reply, and his flashing eyes
told how much he was in earnest
Jim was taken over to the police court
by Sergeant Sweitzer, and Judge Cory
ordered the weapon confScated and re-
CURED bond of slOO that jim would
keep the peace. Mr.. Nash furnished
the bond and Lettie and Jim went back
to their accustomed places in the Nash
premises. They did not go together,
though, and Jim gritted his teeth hard
as he walked away. 1t may be that he
will yet fulfill some of his threats.
